Produktbeschreibung
This book brings together the views of moral theorists and physicians, advocates and opponents of euthanasia to offer a well-balanced debate of the most critical issues in this emotion-filled controversy. "... the two sides presented make this book a must-read". -- American Rationalist

Is there a moral difference between "killing" and "letting die"? This book presents nineteen fascinating selections that help clear away the clouds of confusion churning at the center of this emotionally charged debate.
